Companions/Upgrade

Upgrade Companions allows players to level up their companions by fusing them with other companions. This menu can be accessed from [Tavern] > [Upgrade Companions].

As a companion's level increases, its stats will improve. Once a companion has reached max level, it can no longer be upgraded, but it may be evolved if it has an evolution available. (Note that evolving resets the companion's level to 1.)

Companions can only gain experience through upgrading; they do not gain experience from battles.

Metal Minion drops from all Metal Zones and Metal Minion Λ has a chance to drop from Metal Zones 3 and higher. Metal Minion ΛΛ can only be obtained from special events and promotions. 10 Metal Minons can be evolved into a Metal Minion Λ, and 3 Metal Minion Λ can be evolved into a Metal Minion ΛΛ. Metal Minions are also common filler drops in Luck Treasure Chests.

Hiso's Tear and Hiso's Note are special companions that give more EXP than regular companions, which makes them viable for use in upgrades. Hiso's Tear has a chance to drop from Chapter 19-7 and both may be obtained from the Companions of Fellowship.

ΟⅡ companions should be upgraded using copies of the same ΟⅡ companion, as it would take a large amount of Metal Minion ΛΛ and coins otherwise. ΟⅡ companions start at level 30 and give 1,050,000 EXP (or 1,575,000 during a 3x EXP event) when fed to the same ΟⅡ companion. To fully upgrade an ΟⅡ companion, it takes 11 additional copies normally and 8 additional copies during a 3x EXP event. An alternative way to upgrade an ΟⅡ companion from level 30 to level 80 during a 3x EXP event is by using 7 copies of the ΟⅡ companion and 1 Metal Minion ΛΛ.

8 ΟⅡ companions, 3x EXP event:

Start, level 30: 1,550,568 EXP

After 4 companions: +6,300,000 EXP to level 63

Another 4 companions: +6,300,000 EXP to level 80

Costs: 6,000 + 12,600 = 18,600 coins

7 ΟⅡ companions and 1 Metal Minion ΛΛ, 3x EXP event:

Start, level 30: 1,550,568 EXP

After 3 companions and Metal Minion ΛΛ: +4,925,000 EXP level 58

Another 4 companions: +6,300,000 EXP to level 80

Costs: 6,000 + 11,600 = 17,600 coins

Note that these calculations do not take into account the costs of evolving from Metal Minion to Metal Minion Λ (1,106), evolving from Metal Minion Λ to Metal Minion ΛΛ (2,106), or the potential coins gained from selling off a Metal Minion ΛΛ (20,000) or level 30 ΟⅡ companion (13,500).

The amount of experience that a companion needs to level up and reach max level varies depending on the companion's class. Even within classes, there are different growth rates for different types of companions. Check the individual companion pages for their "Total EXP" and compare it to the corresponding table below.

Some of these tables are very long, so they are set to collapsed by default. Click "Expand" to view a table's contents.
